Very good pics, Mike. Amazing that that huge thing can actually hover?
Also, the last pic in the first batch-I have a very similar shirt to the one that boy was wearing way in the back.

Yep, I highly doubt that the Princess Anne of the Royal Family will allow visits to her cockpit.

This is not meant rudely so don't take it rudely please anyone.

If you read the first post of this topic, and looked at the photos you would not have to ask endless silly questions.

Got her at last, Freedom 90 leaving the beach slipway at Lee-on-the-Solent this morning!!

Nice. I was hoping to see her yesterday, but the wind kicked up and she was delayed and came after I went
